Right Fog light

Hey guys,

So I was going to swap out my HID bulb to 4300k the other day because i thought it was the bulb that was out, but when I put in the new bulb still did not work. The other side works fine. I also went and took the HID's off on that side and replaced it with the OEM bulb still didn't work. Can someone tell me what going on? Did I burn the wiring? or something?

P.S.
I noticed on the low beams one reflects higher than the other. Is there a way to adjust them so they are even?

Best,
LBTSX09

Is it your driver side that is lower? Mine is the same way. I am not sure if this is adjustable from stock set up. I believe they do this so that we do not blind oncoming traffic and so that on passenger side, it will shine further into distance. Just my thoughts though. I know in my civic I created my own custom HID projector setup and I had a very level cuttoff and I got flashed quite a bit. So, I lowered my driver side some.

the step that you see in the beam pattern is there for a reason as to not blind oncoming traffic.

as for your problem, it might be a ballast. switch ballast and see if the problem follows it.

If it's fog, he tried the stock on both sides, then it can't be a ballast...right?
There's no way that that bulb can be dead already...right...?

I say bring it to the dealership. Must be a deeper problem.
